The Anthony Joshua protection plan

[Motorcity Cobra]

He claims Joshua wants to fight someone

😲 Eddie Hearn: "Joshua wants the Usyk fight, he is fascinated by that kind of thing because he wants to test himself against people who he thinks are brilliant. He thinks Usyk is brilliant. Joshua is up for it."

But then he says that person has to fight his other fighters first.

📋 Eddie Hearn has listed his idea of a plan for Oleksandr Usyk to get to Anthony Joshua:

1⃣ Tony Bellew
2⃣ Dillian Whyte
3⃣ Possibly also Dereck Chisora
➡️ Anthony Joshua

Usyk should take that route to Joshua. He'd get acclimated to the division and make a lot of money.

They turn into Twinkies when their investment is threated....LOL

hearns laying money on a plate for these guys if they want it. ive never known a promoter being criticised so much for offering fighters big pay days.

Usyk is the guy anybody should fight. He's another level.

Joshua is like the final boss in a Shounen Arc.

You have to fight the sidekicks and minions of the crew before you get to the big bad boss.

If you have a legitimate chance, you have to face Joshua's little ****ty british crew.

No Wilder fan should be making threads about protection plans for OBVIOUS reasons starting all the way back to 2008 !

funny how two days ago, using Chisora's name would have gotten him laughed at.

but knocking out a 37 year old Takam coming off a loss, and now he's a killer.


at least that's better than Whyte knocking out Browne

Joshua beats Usyk if he goes in with him too soon. Size matters.

No he making himself money by making people fight his stable of fighters to get Joshua. By the time they get through his gauntlet he hopes they are beat up enough for Joshua to beat.
